ok, so for anyone with standard windows in their car, if this has happened to you then you know it sucks, same for automatic i guess...
anyways, so I get off work @ 1am, and a friend at work came with me and we had a couple smokes and all that, then he tried rolling up my passenger side window..
ok, first off the handles on both the drivers side and passenger front, are very hard to roll up however the 2 rear are really easy..
anyways he tried rolling it up, keep in mind you really have to push/pull... and all we hear is a SNAP and then a sorry but its all good because when I think about it it would have happened sooner or later..
question being, temporarily for now, is there a way to get the window rolled up if I take the door panel off.. and if so.. how? second how much would this cost to fix or would it be easy enough to do myself...
the thing that sucks more is the window was all the way down so I took EVERYTHING out of my car!

*Temporary Fix (Assuming the clips on the window have come off)
Take the door panel off. You will probably see that the window has fallen off of the track. Put the window back on the track and roll it up.
*To actually fix it, you will either need to get a new window or somehow glue the clips back on. Depending on how good of a job you do with the adhesive, it should work. After trying a whole bunch of adhesives, I recommend goop-it?
It's like a red adhesive tube found at Canadian tire.
Good luck!
